A rubber track, in particular for a road paver or a feeder vehicle, comprising at least one drive wheel and at least one guide wheel, which are placed on a carrier together with wheels arranged in pairs and a rubber track, wherein the wheels have rims, and wherein on a circumferential surface of the rims of the wheels a rubber lining is attached, wherein a guide cam is provided on an inner side of the rubber track, which guide cam is configured to penetrate into an intermediate space between two wheels located next to each other, wherein a contact surface of the wheels facing the guide cam has an insert detachably attached to the rims.

A track roller rim is disclosed. The track roller rim may include an outer member including an annular configuration defining an axis of rotation, a radial direction, and a circumferential direction disposed about the axis of rotation, where the outer member has an inner circumference, an outer circumference, a first axial end disposed along the axis of rotation, and a second axial end disposed along the axis of rotation. The track roller rim may include a first annular inner member, where the first annular inner member is interference fit within the inner circumference of the outer member at the first axial end. The track roller rim may include a second annular inner member, where the second annular inner member is interference fit within the inner circumference of the outer member at the second axial end.

A sprocket and an idler sharing a common wheel member are manufactured by a method that includes providing a common wheel member, providing an idler flange annular attachment, and providing a tooth annular attachment.

A work machine may include an drive frame, a drivable track coupled to the drive frame, an idler wheel coupled to the drive frame to facilitate movement of the drivable track, and a wheel weight coupleable to the idler wheel. The wheel weight may be coupled to the idler wheel without removing the idler wheel from the drive frame.

An idler wheel includes a disk shaped idler body, and a plurality of wear plate assemblies disposed to encircle a circumferential surface of the idler body. Each wear plate assembly includes a first wear plate and a second wear plate. The first and second wear plates are adjacent to each other. Each of the first and second wear plates includes a first crawler belt contact surface and a second crawler belt contact surface. Each of the first wear plates includes a first end part that defines an end on a second wear plate side of the first crawler belt contact surface as seen in a plan view, and a second end part that defines an end on the second wear plate side of the second crawler belt contact surface as seen in the plan view. The first end part is inclined with respect to an axial direction.

A sprocket and an idler sharing a common wheel member are manufactured by a method that includes providing a common wheel member, providing an idler flange annular attachment, and providing a tooth annular attachment.

A mid-roller for a tracked work vehicle has a shaft and a pair of hubs assembled about the shaft, each hub having a cylindrical housing with a flange portion projecting radially outward. Each mid-roller also has a pair of metallic roller wheels mounted on the pair of hubs, each roller wheel having a radial face connected to the flange portion of its respective hub and an outer cylindrical housing symmetrical with the shaft axis defining an outer peripheral surface having an elastomeric coating bonded thereon configured to engage the inner surface of the endless track belt. Each mid-roller also has a pair of non-metallic, ring-shaped reduced-friction guides. Each roller wheel has one of said reduced-friction guides mounted thereon such that the reduced-friction guide interacts with track guide blocks such that the reduced-friction guide is configured to be the point of contact between the mid-roller and the track guide blocks.

A resilient component for a wheel of a track system is disclosed. The resilient component includes a resilient body and a wear element. The resilient body defines a hub aperture for at least partially receiving a hub component. The resilient body extends radially outwardly from the hub aperture, and defines a first lateral sidewall and a second lateral sidewall, the first and second lateral sidewalls being spaced apart. The wear element is connectable to one of the first and second lateral sidewalls, and at least partially surrounds the hub aperture. A wheel having the resilient component and the hub component is also disclosed. A track assembly having the wheel is also disclosed.

A track assembly for traction of a tracked vehicle, such as an agricultural vehicle, an industrial vehicle (e.g., a construction vehicle) or a military vehicle, is provided. The track assembly comprises a plurality of wheels which comprises a drive wheel and a plurality of roller wheels, as well as an elastomeric endless track disposed around the plurality of wheels for engaging the ground. A roller wheel may comprise a wheel body and a covering on the wheel body. The covering may comprise a lateral portion dimensioned to contact a drive/guide lug of the track. The roller wheels and the track may implement a self-alignment system of the track assembly. The track assembly may comprise a cooling system for transferring heat away from a roller wheel. The track assembly may comprise a lateral motion mechanism allowing a roller wheel to move widthwise in response to a side load.

In some implementations, a controller may receive, from a sensor system of the machine, sensor data indicating a movement of an idler block of an idler assembly of an undercarriage of the machine. The controller may determine, based on the sensor data, that the idler block has moved from a first position to a second position. The controller may determine an amount of wear of an idler of the idler assembly based on the idler block moving from the first position to the second position. The controller may determine whether the amount of wear satisfies a wear threshold. The controller may cause the machine to perform an action based on determining whether the amount of wear satisfies the wear threshold.
